[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1102688, member: 4362"] Alan, its not made up for sure. Might have a lot of dust and cobwebs on it though. From memory, figuring like this is much easier than your mind will let it be but its been a while and I may have the formula wrong but I think this is it. That said, I'm afraid I got it wrong because of what Dave said. I didn't think about that. anything less than 10 is not possible so the number of possible answers is only 50 rather than the 60 I used. I think the math is right but the most would be 50 to account for the 10 that cannot be. In that case it would be about 1:5000 chance. Still not good odds for the house. [/QUOTE]
